Cindy is seeking re-election in Daniel McIntyre ward because she wants to build on the progress that council has made over the last four years. After years of tax freezes and service cuts resulting in streets, sidewalks and lanes in disrepair this council is addressing this issue and moving forward on many fronts.
Cindy grew up in Daniel McIntyre she has always been active in the community she is Raising her family here now. Cindy played ringette at Orioles and speed skated at what is now the Cindy Klassen rec center. She graduated from Tec-Voc and she attended the University of Winnipeg. Prior to running for council Cindy was a School Trustee.
As a councillor Cindy has worked on issues such as improved accountability, upgraded community facilities, and improved city services, especially fixing our deteriorating streets, sidewalks and lanes. Safety and poverty have been and will continue to be a top priority for her.
She hosts regular Conversations with the Councillor at Cindy Klassen and highlights community involvement on my website and in social media. Councillor expenses are now posted on the city website and her annual newsletter highlights community grants and events. Working together with you, several community facilities have been upgraded and we are seeing continuous improvements in the 311 service.
As Chair of the UN Safe Cities Committee, The Citizens Equity Committee, The Cities Innovation Committee and as a member of the Executive Policy Committee she has been able to influence these decisions. Working together is getting results but there is much more she wants to do. Although increased investments in streets, sidewalks and lanes has made things better for some we need a strong budget commitment to continue and she is asking for your support to push for it.
Her priorities will continue to be working with you for improved infrastructure, community safety, good community facilities and improved city services, particularly in the area of transportation. She will be working on helping cars and cyclists exist safely together and advocating for a low-income bus pass.
Over the last term, Cindy demonstrated that working together works and we have made progress. She is asking for your continued support to keep that progress happening.
